Bachata in London runs every night of the week, with 11 weekly socials to choose from. Tuesday is the busiest night, with 3 parties on the floor. Friday and Sunday each add 2 events, and Monday through Saturday all have something on. So you can dance seven days out of seven if you want to. Most nights happen in dedicated dance studios and bars across the city, from Fulham and Hammersmith to Vauxhall and the City. Bachata shares the scene with salsa, which is slightly bigger at 13 events, plus smaller kizomba and zouk nights (4 and 3 events). Many socials start with a class before open dancing, and coming alone is normal.
